Win a Copy of the New "The Barefoot Running Book"

[Last Place Jason]

The new edition from Plume drops August 28th, and I'm giving away a free copy. The directions are simple- come up with a clever barefoot slogan. Post it on the contest thread on the book's Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/barefootrunningbook), then get people to "like" your slogan. The slogan with the most likes by the deadline (Monday Aug. 27th, 6pm EST) will win a copy.

Have fun!

That sounds like a lot of work. How about if I'm the first to 'like' your announcement?

How about you just copy and paste the text of the new book in this thread??

 

[Bare Lee]

I'm too impatient. Just pre-ordered it from Amazon. Looking forward to reading it!

 

[rickwhitelaw]

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing Lee. I don't mind contributing to Jason's RV gas fund (or the keg that's in it, fund).

 

[rickwhitelaw]

Jason, is there a way to direct order it or download so you get the full proceeds? Or do you get the same amount regardless of who sells it?

 

[Last Place Jason]

Thankss guys! Rick- no. I actually don't get much for this version, the publisher gets the majority of the cut... even if it's the ebook version.

Jeremy- I've pretty much posted the whole text over the last few years... just cut and paste all my forum posts from here and RW together.

Since some people don't use Facebook, I'm opening this thread up as a potential place to post slogans. If you don't have a FB account, post the slogan here and direct people to like it. The slogan that gets the most likes between the two will win.

oooo......not sure if this is a good or bad move Jason....I've seen some pretty ridiculous comments with a lot of "likes" (some may or may not have been my comments )

Bad ideas are my specialty, Zetti.

Zetti, I "liked" your comment You're winning!!!

 

[Bare Lee]

'Likes' neatly mirror our government's fiat money. You can spend as much as you want, they never run out.

 

[Lomad]

But what's the gub'ment doing with that unlimited tiny Italian Car money?

How about 'Barefoot Book 2: Electric Boogaloo'?

 

[rickwhitelaw]

You lost me at Facebook. I'll just buy a copy.

 

[Zetti]

there is a thread full of barefoot quotes for the back of a shirts that should serve quite well here.
I just cant seem to find it....

Congrats on the new book!!

I'll definitely buy the book, but out of principle I never take part in contests were the outcome is determined by 'likes' . Often it's the person with the largest social network winning, not the one with the best entry (not that my entry would be the best...)

I collect Facebook friends simply for this reason.

I like ramzev that I read one time
"God made my feet, Chinese children made your shoes; I sleep well, how about you?"
Though it is quite abrasive...
